I'm in my 60's and I would like a moisturizer a littler heavier at night. Which one is better suited for older skin? The Hypoallergenic Nourishing Moisturizer or the Face Finishing Moisturizer? Which helps more with fine lines, wrinkles and firmness?

For your specific concerns Perricone MD recommends using the Neuropeptide Firming Moisturizer. This moisturizer is made for a mature skin and will offer the most benefits in firming and helping to minimize fine lines and wrinkles.

Q:

Can I start using this cream if I'm 24? Or is it too early to give my skin these ingredients.Thanks!

Easy to use in combination with a Perricone MD Cleanser. Evens out Skin Tone, places just the right amount of moisture, especially with my combination skin. I was worried it might make my oily areas worst, but it actually evens those spots out. After 2 weeks, there is a noticeable difference in the look and feel of my skin........Finally, a Moisturizer that works!! Addicted for life!!

I use this facial moisturizer before I go to bed and first thing in the morning. It makes my skin feel smooth and smells great. After time, I find that i do not need foundation when I leave the house. It does nothing in the ant aging department, because only fillers can have any effect on deep wrinkles or sagging.
